(FB 1548543449 Timestamp) COURSES UPDATE: WAR Richard and I are toggling back and forth on the WAR courses and honestly you are going to be blown away. Seriously. He is going to do a great balance of red vs blue so to speak so that we understand both sides of the 4gw scenarios. Amazing guy. Really. We are going to be very lucky to have him.

(FB 1548691164 Timestamp) INTERESTING FEEDBACK FROM SOMEONE’S APPLICATION (a) professionals are taking note, and understand. (b) john mark is really killing it with his messaging. —“5- Prior to John Marks videos, my first impression of Propertarianism was merely the extension of current law concerning property into other areas of tort law – where my head is now… property is not being “extended” it is being re-defined to anything we build or feel the need to defend. It is an ethical system which has as a first priority honesty, as high truth environments are the most fertile for trade due to their decrease of friction. Friction is avoided if trades meet the fair trade criteria, this is derived from Natural Law and is called Reciprocity. Assumption is if Reciprocity is met, conflict will be avoided. If any or all aspects of reciprocity are violated violence could ins-sue, and likely would with repeat offenses. The system would allow state violence, to enforce the rules of trade, through the courts devised for the particular legal systems for that domain (seems to be that we would need specialists here – less politicians but a lot more lawyers/judges?). Science is our best model for truth telling so we extend that discipline into all domains, and create definitions and a judiciary that can properly administer justice according to the rules of trade in that domain. This leads to a new paradigm of how any defined group can trade in any operational domain. One key notion of the theory I see you have in place is correspondence: the definitions, rules, goals have to be able to be demonstrable, operationalized. This seems is key. I am still working it… just been a few days…”—

(FB 1548635509 Timestamp) John Mark, Bill Joslin, JOHN IS LIKE A NUCLEAR WEAPON. DAMN. This is a pretty fair example of my mailbox. John is reaching normies like crazy. Real men. But what I want to talk about is this sentence: —“As I had not seen any evidence or opportunity to attack our challenges from this scope – the challenges we face as a civilization MUST be addressed at this level, I have been living more in the silent desperation as most of us likely do, as I do not have direct access to my tribe.”— John, is there a way to play into that message? Into that demand? That … feeling? —- CONTENTS OF EMAIL —- —“Four days ago I was made aware of this project, and Curt Dolittle, due to John Mark’s “Mark My Words” YouTube Channel. Needless to day I went from skepticism, to guarded interest… to being a bit obsessed. I have spent the last three days in what spare time I have looking into Propertarianism, as defined by this project. As a trained philosopher who continues to educate himself while working in high tech (Spinoza had to grind lenses 😉 , I have read or am familiar with most of the books on the reading list. I have been contemplating for the last few years, a new political party with a platform based on Natural Law… I see you have gone down a similar path, and have provided what appears to be a full working theory of the type I could really dig into. I am still not completely there yet, as this is a very comprehensive system of thought. I might compare your project to Leibniz universal scientific language in scope. And am curious on an aside if you think of Leibniz as contributing to the mysticism of the 20th century or a potential way out. I must say I am very impressed, I have not yet been able to poke any major holes in what I have dug into. My initial questions are getting my head around how to operationalize specific implementations of the theory in the real world, which is an important part of this theory. If anything the more I delve in I look potentially at a tribe I have felt disconnected from as academics nor the work place have not been supportive of my political, civic and metaphysical inclinations, this is especially true in the San Francisco Bay Area. If anything my views are shunned in the current political environment to the point where our free speech is infringed upon often. Thus I have focused on living my philosophy in my small tribe, family, and bringing up my three sons with the best information and guidance possible. As I had not seen any evidence or opportunity to attack our challenges from this scope – the challenges we face as a civilization MUST be addressed at this level, I have been living more in the silent desperation as most of us likely do, as I do not have direct access to my tribe. So my second set of questions would be how do I get involved, and how can I contribute? My specialties of interest are Western Philosophy, Modern Philosophy, Philosophy of Science, CogSci and AI. As well as a deep understanding in comparative religion, evolutionary psychology and history. I also have studied and practiced martial arts for decades both history and application, including hand to hand, weapons and the art of war (Sun Tzu yes but meaning von Clausewitz, just war and total war theories). Thus you can understand why your project really resonates with me. I do not have anything of note to share in recent writing as I have not done real philosophy for years in regards to output, but I do have the gifts of clear analysis, synthesis, writing and public speaking.Sincerely,”—

(FB 1548601266 Timestamp) ( Lessons Learned: learnpress is the best user experience, learndash the best mixed experience, and moodle the best instructor experience. I chose the user experience for the purpose of expediency but now that I’m working with it, … i’m reminded of advice I’ve given customers for decades: make sure your code is written by americans…. I mean. that’s pretty much the lesson all-round the world. There must be something culturally insightful in that statement but .. you definitely want code written by americans. It’s probably because americans have been doing it longer, but it’s also because it’s customer service psychology happens to be extremely useful in the production of code. Ergo, will switch to hosting on AWS and using Learndash at some point in the future, and will hand-code the UI instead of using the drag and drop ui (which is what I seem to do pretty much all the time. ))

(FB 1548695061 Timestamp) BUT WHAT ABOUT NEPOTISM???? —“If you have the time can anyone explain to me how you deal/curtail with nepotism in your hierarchy ? A link to read perhaps? Worthy men aren’t always from the same family e.g. the son is not always the father by far. I’m curious.”–David England What ended nepotism in european peoples? In what industries did nepotism persist until today? Why did those instances of nepotism persist and why did the other instances not persist? What could be done to end the kind of nepotism that survives? What kind of nepotism can (should) continue to survive? (why is nepotism always a bad thing, or why is it indicative of a bad thing since it is hard to make the case that nepotism is a universal bad?) The answer will be obvious once you work thru it.

(FB 1548821873 Timestamp) For the courses we need: The Intellectual (academic – argument ) The Martial (military – force) The Spiritual (social – mindfulness) The Physical. (personal – fitness) The only hard ones are the physical because it is very hard to ‘authenticate’ talent that isn’t already part of our ‘fitness’ circle on one hand an our ‘combat sports’ circle on the other. it’s just an IQ thing, I know. But it’s harder to find that than you think. Anyway, we will start with Art, History, Law, and War and build out from there. Very excited.
